With the register_printf_type/register_printf_modifier/register_printf_specifier
APIs the C library is just told the size of the argument and is provided with
a callback to fetch the argument from va_list using va_arg into C library provided
memory. The C library isn't told what alignment requirement it has, but we were
using direct load of a __float128 value from that memory which assumes
__alignof (__float128) alignment.
The following patch fixes that by using memcpy instead.
I haven't been able to reproduce an actual crash, tried
#include <quadmath.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main ()
{
__float128 r;
int prec = 20;
int width = 46;
char buf[128];
r = 2.0q;
r = sqrtq (r);
int n = quadmath_snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "%+-#*.20Qe", width, r);
if ((size_t) n < sizeof buf)
printf ("%s\n", buf);
/* Prints: +1.41421356237309504880e+00 */
quadmath_snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "%Qa", r);
if ((size_t) n < sizeof buf)
printf ("%s\n", buf);
/* Prints: 0x1.6a09e667f3bcc908b2fb1366ea96p+0 */
n = quadmath_snprintf (NULL, 0, "%+-#46.*Qe", prec, r);
if (n > -1)
{
char *str = malloc (n + 1);
if (str)
{
quadmath_snprintf (str, n + 1, "%+-#46.*Qe", prec, r);
printf ("%s\n", str);
/* Prints: +1.41421356237309504880e+00 */
}
free (str);
}
printf ("%+-#*.20Qe\n", width, r);
printf ("%Qa\n", r);
printf ("%+-#46.*Qe\n", prec, r);
printf ("%d %Qe %d %Qe %d %Qe\n", 1, r, 2, r, 3, r);
return 0;
}
In any case, I think memcpy for loading from it is right.

* printf/printf_fp.c (__quadmath_printf_fp): Use memcpy to copy
__float128 out of args.
* printf/printf_fphex.c (__quadmath_printf_fphex): Likewise.
